Disabled spot sign that needs to be used everywhere.

That's it, retreat in to the fascist left wing mode of labelling anyone who doesn't think the same as you as being right wing. A pretty feeble response, but not altogether surprising.

I'll just ignore you from now on as I think it's the best way to maintain a mental and nerve stability.

If your grip on mental stability is that tenuous you'd perhaps be better off avoiding forums, and perhaps even the real world. Or, alternatively, surround yourself with people who flock, sorry, think exactly as you do and don't brook any dissent.

The thing about the cash machines, why are BOTH like that though, surely one of each is more intelligent to implement?

Subsidence.

I think the slogan my dad always liked was "So I see you took my parking spot. Would you like my disability, too?". I always liked that.

It's fine to describe someone as a wankstain, and make a generalisation about BMW drivers, and all because someone struggles to walk - but presumably they're going to be walking around the store? Sure, I know it's not fluffy and all, but then saying "go and shoot yourself or something" isn't fluffy either. I guess I just haven't quite got it, don't yet fully understand what bigotries and generalisations are acceptable and which aren't. Must try harder.

He said a wankstain of a BMW driver, not a generalisation about BMW drivers in er... general. He also really clearly said she has to walk around the store but the less walking the better. Fucknuts not parking in the disabled spots while being no big deal for them is a big help to her.

Given that I'm sure you'd agree that parking in the wrong place is a bit of a cunts trick. Is that something we can all (apart from Stark) agree on?

Oh wait, the other one.

Stark Irony II.

You wouldn't describe yourself as right wing, then? Interesting.

As for your comments on grue's grasp on reality - people in glass houses shouldn't play topless darts.

I think the way to figure out if lots of disabled parking spaces, wheel clamping BMWs, or whatever it is, is all helping the country to just ask people whether their lives have got better or worse since they came in (or would be better) and then average it all out proportionally.

So here's my 2c - I'm not disabled, and supermarkets have become a bit more annoying with disabled spaces, usually because I drive down the nearest row to the shop only to discover that it's disabled till about halfway down. (I'll never park in a disabled spot obviously. I'm not a cunt.)

So the things which irks me is, couldn't they put the odd non-disabled bay in just so if it is 11 o'clock at night, you can just nip in and out?

Or does every disabled bay count? Or would it be fine with less if there was more disabled bay 'policing'? How many times have you found someone who's not disabled in a disabled bay? Is that the major problem and the reason why there has to be so many?

However this wouldn't be serving the thread if it didn't have...

I've got a bit of an issue with 'single-parent' parking just because I feel people have got a choice whether to have kids/split with their partner, whereas disabled people don't have a choice.

But what if a disabled person acquired hir injury or illness as a result of choosing to do something reckless?
